The Aids Healthcare Foundation (AHF) Zambia says there is need to scale up Advocacy for condom use this year following a global decline in the use of condoms.
AHF Zambia acting Country Programme Manger Eric Mpoyi said UNAIDS had noted a decline in the use of condoms which is a cardinal strategy in combating the spread of HIV.
Dr Mpoyi said his organisation believes that there is need to strengthen the promotion of condom use as a way to prevent new HIV infections and curb unwanted spread of sexually transmitted diseases.
He said there’s consensus among health, HIV/AIDS experts and government officials to make condom advocacy a top priority in 2021.
